Liproverbia 15:1-33
15 Kalabo yebunolo* ifelisa mabifi,+Kono manzwi autwisa butuku atahisa buhali.+
2 Lilimi la bababutali liitusisa hande zibo,+Kono mulomo wa litoto ubulela litaba za bukuba.
3 Meeto a Jehova abona kai ni kai,Kutalima babamaswe ni babande.+
4 Lulimi lolukuzize* ki kota ya bupilo,+Kono lipulelo zekopami zazwafisa.*
5 Sikuba sishwaula kalimelo ya ndataa sona,+Kono mutu yanani butali wautwa haasikululwa.*+
6 Mwa ndu ya mutu yalukile kunani bufumu bobuñata,Kono sakutula* yamaswe simukenya mwa butata.+
7 Milomo ya bababutali ihasanya zibo,+Kono pilu ya sitoto haiezi cwalo.+
8 Sitabelo sa babamaswe sanyenyisa ku Jehova,+Kono tapelo ya babalukile yamunyakalalisa.+
9 Jehova unyenya nzila ya mutu yamaswe,+Kono ulata mutu yatundamena kuluka.+
10 Kalimelo ibonahala bumaswe* ku mutu yakeluha mwa nzila,+
Kono mutu yatoya nyazo ukashwa.+
11 Libita* ni sibaka sa sinyeho* li fa nalela ku Jehova.+
Lipilu za batu ni zona licwalo, mane ni kufita!+
12 Musheununi halati mutu yamusikulula.*+
Haana kubuza bababutali.+
13 Pilu yetabile itahisa tabo mwa pata,Kono pilu ye mwa maswabi ilembwalisa moya.+
14 Pilu yenani kutwisiso ibata zibo,+Kono mulomo wa litoto uifepa ka* bukuba.+
15 Mazazi kaufela a mutu yanyandile amaswe,+Kono mutu yanani pilu yetabile* u mwa mukiti ka nako kaufela.+
16 Ki hande kuba ni lika zenyinyani mutu inzaa saba Jehova+Kufita kuba ni sifumu sesiñata mutu inzaa nani lipilaelo.*+
17 Ki hande kuca muloho inze kunani lilato+Kufita kuca nama ya poho yenunisizwe* inze kunani sitoyo.+
18 Mutu wa kacimacima utahisa lifapahano,+Kono yasahalifi kapili ufelisa likomano.+
19 Nzila ya mutu yabuzwa iswana sina lukwakwa lwa mikakani,+Kono nzila ya babalukile iswana sina mukwakwa onamile.+
20 Mwana yabutali utabisa ndatahe,+Kono sitoto ushwaula mahe.+
21 Bukuba bwatabisa ku mutu yasina ngana,*+Kono mutu yanani temuho uzamaya mwa nzila yelukile.+
22 Milelo haikondangi hakusina kulelisana,*Kono lika zakonda hakunani baelezi babañata.+
23 Mutu watabanga hafile kalabo yelukile,*+Mi linzwi lelibulelwa ka nako yelukile—ki lelinde luli!+
24 Ku yanani kutwisiso, nzila ya bupilo yakambama,+Kumukauhanya kwa Libita* leli kwatasi.+
25 Jehova ukawisa ndu ya babaipahamisa,+Kono ukabukeleza mululwani wa mbelwa.+
26 Jehova unyenya milelo ya mutu yamaswe,+Kono lipulelo zende ki zekenile ku Yena.+
27 Mutu yafumana pulofiti ka kusasepahala utahiseza ba ndu yahae butata,*+Kono yatoile likweta ukazwelapili kupila.+
28 Pilu ya mutu yalukile yanahanisisanga isika alaba kale,*+Kono mulomo wa babamaswe ubulela litaba zemaswe.
29 Jehova u kwahule ni babamaswe,Kono uutwa litapelo za babalukile.+
30 Meeto abenya anyakalalisa* pilu;Piho yende itiisa masapo.*+
31 Yautwa kalimelo yepilisaUina mwahalaa bababutali.+
32 Yahana kalimelo unyenya bupilo* bwahae,+Kono yautwa kalimelo ukaipumanela kutwisiso.*+
33 Kusaba Jehova kuluta mutu kuba ni butali,+Mi buikokobezo buisa kwa kukutekiwa.+
